Re: Biodiesel from algae approaching commercial scale in New Mexico
Wow the potential of 15,000 gallons per acre vs. 20 from corn is amazing! I'd love to see a vial of the finished product....I am curious as to what color it is.....clear as water? yellowish like some veggie oils? Edible for cooking before being transformed into biodiesel? This is all very hopeful, and with none of the negative side effects of releasing into the global environment the byproducts of fossil carbon that has been sequestered underground since the Carboniferous Age. Plus as a gardener I feel certain the solid waste much be protein rich and thus usable as a food supplement for people or livestock or useful as a high nitrogen natural fertilizer.
